Our Values and Belief Statements

We believe that:

The role of the WDB is to help create a competitive workforce in this region.

Our success depends on collaborating with economic development and educational entities to ensure that workers enter the workplace at a comparative advantage and that the region continues to create new career opportunities.

To improve the quality of life and well being of this region, we must work closely with area companies to ensure that they demand and receive highly trained, skilled workers.Our efforts must be to help increase the average wages and benefits available to all workers in the region.

To improve their standard of living, those at greatest risk of falling behind economically must have priority access to training opportunities.

With limited resources, we must make choices about how training resources are invested to ensure that these public investments have the greatest economic impact on our region.
